Default [WR] Sting in the tail. S Coventry to Kenilworth.

I had to go home lunchtime and got caught in a moderate TS with a fair
drop of rain 1200-1230. Experienced a very close C-G as I was driving,
seemed to strike something in someone's back garden about 50 or so
metres away from where I was. The 10 m walk from car to front door was
enough to thoroughly soak me.

The rainfall radar is interesting as it seems to indicate a sort of
"tail" of heavy rain this area.

In Coventry itself, it was as dark as night by 1215hr with 2 claps of
thunder and torrential rain with water overflowing all of the drains
and gutters around the school.

At home in Hatton, we recorded 34.5mm of rain today!
